Geocache Description:

So, what do you call it? Soda? Pop? Soda pop? Where I come from we call it pop. You are looking for a bigger (long) micro.

Some call them preforms, where I got them from they are called “baby soda bottles”. They are actually 2-liter bottles as they appear before being blown up into big bottles. The tube is placed into a vacuum mold and heated. Then, very hot air is blown into it, stretching the plastic like a balloon so it fills the inside of the mold. The tube grows to about 40 times its original size. When the plastic cools, the mold is opened and the bottle falls out ready to be filled with a delightfully refreshing liquid. This info is from Steve Spangler Science I hope you enjoy this series.
